Overview
Introduction
Windows NT applications servers use the ICA 3.X (Intelligent Console Architecture) protocol to communicate with each terminal in a network. This brings a full range of Microsoft Windows applications such as desktop publishing, word processing, database management, email, presentation, and financial applications to the terminal desktop.An operating system supporting the ICA 3.X protocol must be installed on a Windows NT server before a terminal can communicate with that server.
Consult your Windows NT applications documentation for details.
Your windows terminal is designed to communicate with
Windows NT applications servers in either an intranet (within a company) environment, or with other open computing environments using legacy mainframe/large-scale host systems.
❖
Note Legacy mainframe...systems are mainframe systems that have existed within a company a long time, and contain years of data accumulation and software development.About This Guide
The Winterm Terminal User’s Guide consists of the following sections:◆ Chapter 1, “Communications Setup,” explains how to configure the terminal for communication with a Windows NT applications server. The chapter includes instructions for setting up the terminal’s communications ports for direct, modem, or printer connections.
◆ Chapter 2, “Administrator and User Functions,” explains system administration functions. The chapter includes instructions for enabling the terminal’s security and auto-connect features. Instructions for setting up and modifying terminal user accounts are also available here.
◆ Appendix A, “Serial and Parallel Port Pin Assignments,” provides illustrations showing serial and parallel cable pin-outs between the terminal and a Windows NT applications server.
◆ Appendix B, “Modem Initialization Strings,” lists by modem type the terminal’s default modem initialization strings.
◆ Appendix C, “Troubleshooting,” provides a guide for troubleshooting the terminal.

Script capability has been included to automate the login process when connecting to terminal servers or internet access servers. The scripting process listens for specific strings coming from the host connection, and when found, sends a string back to the host. This two-way dialog can be created within the String field by entering the <exp> and <snd> text on a line-by-line basis. To facilitate script entry, special script controls can be entered into the string:
◆ <cr> is replaced with a carriage return character
◆ <lf> is replaced with a line feed character
◆ <ddd> is replaced with an ASCII character that is equal to the decimal value of ddd
◆ <un> is replaced with the content of the Security dialog box Username field
◆ <pw> is replaced with the content of the Security dialog box Password field
To create a script, first determine the login sequence used by your host or server. This can be done by asking your administrator for a description of the login sequence. Or you can use Terminal Login, going through the Terminal Login process once to learn the server’s login sequence.

Autologin and Autoconnect
The Autologin function is located in the Connection Setup dialog box, shown in Figure 1-4. Click on the Autologin Enable check box to enable this function.
The Autoconnect function is located in the Add User Account dialog box, shown in Figure 2-2. Click on the Autoconnect Enable check box to enable this function.
Autologin
Autologin allows the user to turn on the terminal and establish a predefined connection, without entering any names, passwords, or configuration settings.
Autologin, once enabled, will occur:
◆ After the terminal is turned on.
◆ After the user logs off of a connection.
When the user logs off, the terminal will automatically attempt to reestablish that connection, without the user changing configurations or passwords.
English The Alt + F4 key combination is used to break out of autologin. This feature allows the user to make modifications to pre-defined connections, if the user has such privileges. The Welcome dialog box appears after the break out (see Figure 1-2), allowing the user to log back into terminal.
Autoconnect
Autoconnect allows the user to establish a connection directly from the Welcome dialog box. The user enters a username and password in the Username and Password data fields. The terminal then establishes a connection using the connection information in the Autoconnect function.
In most cases, the Autoconnect feature works with the Security feature. If Autologin and Security are disabled, the Autoconnect feature will not function. The exception is when the administrator uses Autoconnect, and the Autologin and Security features are disabled. Then, a predefined connection will be made. When the administrator logs off, the terminal will return to the Connections dialog box.
When the administrator has the Autoconnect and the Enable User Password Change features enabled during a connection, the terminal will display a time- out dialog box (see Figure 2-5) while making a connection. If the user cancels the connection, the terminal will go to the Options dialog box. Once the user leaves the Options dialog box, the previous connection will resume. When the administrator has the Enable User Password feature disabled during a connection, the terminal will go directly to the server connection, and no time- out dialog box will appear.
❖
Note Administrator user definitions should have the Autoconnect option disabled for security reasons, unless they are defined by the administrator.Options Dialog Box
The Options dialog box (see Figure 1-3) allows the user to select terminal, printer, security, and display settings. All selections are saved by clicking on the OK command button.
If the terminal’s security feature is enabled, access to all terminal, printer, and security options is denied to accounts of type user. The Options command button will be disabled.

Cancel Click on the Cancel command button to disregard your settings, and return to the Options dialog box.
Aux Handshake Modes
Either of the two basic handshaking modes (hardware or software) can be used to control the flow of data through the Aux (Auxiliary) port. Which mode is selected depends upon how the connected host uses the port, and how the active host application addresses the port.
When the Aux port is used as a serial printer port, the hardware handshaking mode uses the DTR/DSR (Data Terminal Ready/Data Set Ready) signals to control the flow of data through the port.
When the Aux port is used as a bidirectional communication port, the hardware handshaking mode uses the RTS/CTS (Request To Send/Clear To Send) signals to control the flow of data through the port.
If the software handshaking mode is selected, the Aux port uses the XON/
XOFF handshake signals to control data flow.
The settings in the Aux Handshake Modes table are configured in the COM1 and COM2 Settings dialog boxes.
❖
Note When the terminal is logged into the server via COM1 or COM2, and the port is enabled as a printer port, the printer configuration will be ignored by the server. The server will not recognize it as a local printer port, but as a server connection. Local serial port settings do not affect a server-connected serial port’s setting.Table 1-12, Aux Handshake Modes, describes the available modes for both the printer and the Aux functions.

2 Administrator and User Functions
The terminal security features gives administrators the means to restrict access to sensitive terminal functions. These features allow the user to automatically log onto (Autologin), and/or automatically connect (Autoconnect) to a server, based on user account information.
❖
Note These functions relate to the terminal only. They should not be confused with network or server functions.The AutoConnect feature is disabled at the factory, leaving the terminal accessible to modification of the terminal settings and illegal log on. Enabling the security feature, and setting up administrator and user-privileged accounts protects the terminal and the network against unwanted access. This chapter explains how to enable these features.
❖
Note Terminal security configurations have no effect on Windows NT applications servers.Administrator and Terminal User Accounts
Terminal security allows two types of accounts— administrator and user:
◆ Administrator accounts provide full access to all user accounts, connection definitions, passwords, and terminal settings and features.
◆ User accounts only provide access to user account passwords. User accounts are restricted from administrator privileges.
The terminal is equipped with a predefined administrator account called Administrator. You can change this account’s properties, such as its password, domain, and auto-connection function. However, the Administrator account cannot be deleted from the terminal.
Terminal user accounts can be defined in any combination of administrator and user accounts. For example, you can define two administrator accounts with full access, eight user accounts with limited access, or four each per terminal.
